Imperfect seduction
Chapter 2
" The long wait you had to suffer has come to an end. The second chapter is here and you will no longer have to fear. I haven't run off without your next chapter. "
His eyes gazed upon her again, for the second time that morning. Wondering when she'd awaken for him to question her and find out every bit of information available. Why was she walking around late at night, which was the main question that had bugged him until he drifted off to sleep.
Rolling his shoulders backwards, he stretched his arms outwards. Trying to get every kink out of his aching body. His body apposed him and ached for a shower. He agreed, looking down at the young girl before walking away to the shower room.
He tugged his cloths away from his body. Stepping into the shower once he was naked and ready to start washing down. The knobs were turned until hot water poured from the upper showerhead. Spraying him down completely, his bangs matting down to his face. His Jagen eye that he desperately tried to hide from people's eye view, became clear to what surrounded him. His mind, however, remained clouded by thoughts.
He stayed still for a few minutes before he snapped away from his thoughts and began to wash his body and hair. Soap bubbles tainted the water beneath his sore feet.
Sakura turned over on the couch. Her eyes twitched slightly before baring themselves to the light. Cringing in a little pain as it hurt to be bared to light when her eyes adjusted to the dark so well.
Shifting, she brought herself into a sitting position so her back leaned into the couch. The blanket that once layed upon her, fell around her skinny waist. Her name, had not yet been known to her rescuer, and she rather liked to keep it that way.
Pushing off the blanket that held onto her. She stood and looked for her sandals that she wore the night before. Finding them beside the couch, she slipped them on in a hurry. The young, pink haired girl's heart started to race as she heared a door open. Specifically, the door to the bathroom.
Twisting around, her eyes settled on the form of a tall man. He remained only in a clad of pants, so his upper body was revealed. Water dripped from his wet hair. Kakashi had put his mask back on, so his Jagen eye was once again covered.
Arching an eyebrow, his voice muffled a little from his mask, " Are you leaving now? I still have much to ask you, young one. ", Kakashi's calm voice questioned.
She looked up, her eyes traveling up his body slowly. Remembering every part of him. Etching itself in her mind permanently. She hid a small smile that tugged at the ends of her lips. Shaking her head to focus on what was happening.
" Well, I thank you for rescuing me from those jerks from last night. I excuse myself from your presents, kind sir. I really must be going. I can't continue to place such a burden on your shoulders. ", she replied to Kakashi.
Hoping it would rid herself from his presence, she started for the door. Kakashi narrowed his eyes, stepping infront of her path to the door. His arms crossed over his chest. He wanted answers and he planned on getting them out of her.
" This won't take long. I promise you that much. Now, please, sit down and answer my questions and I'll walk you home. I assure you, I'm not an enemy or anyone you should be scared of. ", Kakashi responded to her stricken face.
" Fine. But hurry, I need to get home right away. My grandmother will be worried. ", She lied to her rescuer.
" First, why were you walking out so late at night? You know there's a lot of danger to be concerned about when thugs come out at night. A pretty girl like you attracts people like that. ", He murmured to her.
" I was coming home from work. I have to bring home money to be able to shop for food. My home wasn't much further anyways. ", She responded to him equally calm.
" Where are your parents, little girl? Why don't you live with them? ", He questioned her once more.
" There never around much anymore. They travel around a lot, so they don't have time to look after me. ", She replied, standing up once she felt satisfied enough with the information she led him to.
Jamming his hands in his pockets. He didn't protest her leaving. However, he felt that she may have been telling him a fib and wanted to know the real truth behind her lies. Nodding to the younger one, he watched her walk out his front door. A small smirk etched on his face.
Reaching for his keys on the table. He walked slowly to his room to pull on a white shirt and his famous, light gray vest. A ' Come come paradise ' book in his hand. The trained ninja turned off his apartment lights and headed out his door. Locking and quietly closing his door so he wouldn't give off that he was following her.
Slipping his keys into his vest pocket. The older ninja stalked the younger girl, his eyes traveling over the pages of his perverted book. His cheeks lightly flushed as he came across a dirty photograph.
Sakura stopped walking every 5 minutes to look back behind her. Feeling eyes on her, as if someone was following her. She frowned and quickened her pace, shaking her head. ' That guy couldn't be following me..or could he be? Seemed like he caught onto my lies pretty well. I better be careful. '
Turning a corner, she walked toward a white house, it's roof and shutters painted a light green, aligned with a beautiful, yet petite garden in front. She dug around in her pocket for her house keys. Fetching them from the bottom, she pulled them out.
With once last glance over her shoulder, she tore up to her front porch. Inserting her key into its rightful place once she reached her door. Her small figure dissappered behind an oak door, which was immediately slammed and locked.
Kakashi stayed still, sitting in a tree in the neighboring yard next to the girl's home. Eyebrows arching at the urgency to be in the comfort of her own home again. He looked down at his book once, before placing it into one of his vest pockets and jumping down from his place.
Deciding his suspicion to rest until he felt he needed to but in and find out more. Cracking his knuckles, his walk started. He felt his feet protest, so he took a short stop at the nearby Ramen shop at the corner of his apartment building street.
Her light blue eyes darted about the room. Wondering if her parents had stopped home at any time that day. Sighing in discomfort as she was given no signs of human activity since she left.
It didn't bother her much anymore when she didn't have her parents around her like she use to when she was 6. When she turned 12, they thought she was old enough to take care of herself, and went traveling. At times like these, where she felt the need to have them near, she regretted not begging to go with them.
Lifting the kettle from the stove, she poured water into it before setting it back down on the stove and turning it on to boil the water. Her stomach growled hungrily. Guess she'd be having ramen again. Even thought, at times, it did get a little old at having the same thing over and over again.
Next chapter shall be coming out soon. So don't fret.
